"I love Will Arnett. It was great to see him in a role where I didn't see "Will Arnett" the actor, I saw the character he was playing. I couldn't help but feeling a little bored and the story was predictable. That being said, the acting was stellar and I wanted to get more into it but maybe I just wasn't in the right mood. I'll try and watch it again from a different headspace and maybe I'll like it more. It one of those movies you gotta be in the mood to watch if that makes sense...."
